Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis profiles of XbaI-digested genomic DNA from patient (P) and environmental (E) Elizabethkingia meningoseptica isolates from an outbreak in an adult critical care unit, London, UK, 2012–2013. Two additional isolates from patients demonstrated unique pulsed-field gel electrophoresis profiles and are not shown. Patient numbers (e.g., P9) match those given in Table 1.
